HS Credit Value: 1 Credit / Full Year Course
College Credit Value: 8 Credits
Grade levels: 11 & 12

Course Description: 

This course is Coordinated through Mount Saint Mary College. Sign up for CHE 106 and get a fascinating and fundamental grasp of the underpinnings of reality (as we currently understand them!). You’ll investigate forms of energy, atomic structure, quantum theory, periodic law, molecular geometry, properties of liquids and gasses, and more. You’ll learn the concepts necessary for continued study in chemistry, medicine, biology, engineering, and physics. In the lab course (CHE 107), you’ll learn how to handle chemicals and equipment safely and the correct procedures for manipulating and reporting data. CHE 116 is a continuation of CHE 106. Lectures and labs will more deeply explore the dynamic processes that make up the organic and inorganic world. Topics include chemical reactions, chemical equilibrium, thermochemistry and thermodynamics, electrochemistry, voltaic cells, nuclear chemistry, organic chemistry, and polymers. The lab portion (CHE 117) features qualitative analyses of topics such as equilibrium, pH, and solubility. 

College credits are as follows:

CHE 106/107 (3 + 1 credits)
CHE 116/117 (3 + 1 credits)

Students earn a total of 8 college credits earned upon successful completion of this course. Prerequisite: Completion of Chemistry R or H and a passing grade on the Chemistry Regents exam.
